The article used to say this: "1985" was originally written and recorded by the band SR-71, led by Mitch Allan, who co-wrote the song with Jaret Reddick." This is false. The song was written by Mitch Allan and John Allen. It was released on their album Here We Go Again. AFTER it was released, SR-71 gave permission to Bowling For Soup to re-work it and release it on their own album. The re-worked version has the writing credits of Allan, Allen, Reddick. Jaret Reddick had nothing at all to do with the original version. —Preceding unsigned comment added by MrCheck ( talk • contribs) 19:24, 11 May 2009 (UTC)
A while back, this article said that the single reached #35 or #38... which, if any, of those are right? -- LaotianBoy1991
So anyone care to compile a list of videos spoofed by that song's video? I haven't seen it unfortunately... Grue 06:22, 18 Dec 2004 (UTC)

I have added a little bit to the page, my addition in italics:

This article is one of thousands on Wikipedia that have a link to YouTube in it. Based on the External links policy, most of these should probably be removed. I'm putting this message here, on this talk page, to request the regular editors take a look at the link and make sure it doesn't violate policy. In short: 1. 99% of the time YouTube should not be used as a source. 2. We must not link to material that violates someones copyright. If you are not sure if the link on this article should be removed, feel free to ask me on my talk page and I'll review it personally. Thanks. --- J.S ( t| c) 06:47, 7 November 2006 (UTC)
I have listened to the song everywhere about thirty times and it says in said song, "...way before Nirvana", so I have put in that this is a reference to the American alternative rock band, not the concept of immortal happiness. The link didn't even exist, anyways, so I have included that for that reason as well. Fishdert 12:46, 20 June 2007 (UTC)Fishdert
I'm deleting the "Other Songs" section. It's useless and irrelevant. It lists other songs called "1985", or some version of that, but have nothing to do with this particular song itself. -- 24.209.174.88 ( talk) 05:32, 13 November 2009 (UTC)

Without sources, all of that text was just original research trivia. I removed it. I'm not saying it doesn't have a place in the article - but it only has a place if there's a reliable secondary source that exists to confirm it and raise to the level of significance required to have it included in the article. Otherwise it's no better than some fan's music blog, and that's not what we're doing here. Rockypedia ( talk) 03:21, 5 August 2017 (UTC)
